Chapter 554: Chapter 554 - Going Out During The Summer Holiday

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the end, Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya didn’t have the face to contact Yan Jinyu.

However, perhaps they were afraid or guilty, they lived in seclusion even more after Yan Jinyun had told them the truth.

Yan Ruyu’s family had already settled in the capital for the time being. Yu Xiao went to school in peace while Yan Ruyu and Yu Wen taught at the Imperial Capital University.

Yan Jinyu accompanied Yin Jiujin every day other than going to school.

There was nothing else to do, and she had never thought of looking for something else to do.

Almost a year passed smoothly.

This year’s summer vacation was still a few months away from Yan Jinyu’s 20th birthday. Yan Jinyu received an invitation from her roommate, Zhao Linlin, to visit Zhao Linlin’s hometown.

Zhao Linlin said that she wanted to fulfill the promise she had made to Yan Jinyu. She wanted to lend Yan Jinyu her grandfather’s medical books.

Yan Jinyu didn’t care about the medical books. However, she heard that there were many herbs on the mountain in Zhao Linlin’s hometown. She had studied Chinese medicine for a year after all, so she was more interested in this and wanted to go up the mountain to take a look personally.

After knowing this news, Min Rufeng, who was obsessed with studying medicine and all kinds of medicine, was also interested. However, he was now the director of the Imperial Capital Hospital and had a lot of things to settle. It was fine to take a day or two off, but it was impossible to spend two weeks picking herbs.

Even if he had adjusted his timing, he couldn’t follow the girls around as a man. It was fine if it was Yan Jinyu, Huo Siyu, Xi Fengling, who he was very familiar with, but other than Yan Jinyu, he wasn’t familiar with any of them.

He could only be jealous. He was only happy when Yan Jinyu said that she would give him the good herbs that she had picked.

Yan Jinyu was just interested. She wasn’t as infatuated as him.

Yan Jinyu was setting off from the Yin Family. Yin Jiujin was about to send her to the airport when Qin Jianjia pulled her aside and asked, “Yu’er, I heard that you’re going for half a month. Aren’t you bringing too little clothes?”

Speaking of Qin Jianjia, it had been almost two months since she gave birth to a son.

Yan Jinyu looked at the small suitcase beside her. “There’s quite a lot. I brought a suitcase.”

“You seemed to have gone out to buy something yesterday. I think you are bringing it to your classmate’s house as a gift. It’s just a small suitcase. How many clothes can it hold after containing those gifts and some daily necessities? I heard that you’re going to pick herbs. There are many insects in the mountains. Don’t just bring short sleeve dresses and things like that when the weather is hot. You have to bring a jacket.”

Yan Jinyu realized that to a certain extent, Qin Jianjia treated her like a child. It was better in the past, at least she wasn’t so direct. Ever since she gave birth and they were more familiar with each other, Qin Jianjia would say whatever she thought of when she spoke to her.

“I know. I brought them all.”

She smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, this isn’t my first time entering the mountains. I’ve been going around in the mountains a lot in the past.”

Qin Jianjia fell silent.

Yes, she had almost forgotten who Yu’er was in the past.

Even Jin’er, who treated Yu’er like a treasure, was calmer than her.

Just as Qin Jianjia thought that, Yan Jinyu said, “Don’t worry, Sister-in-law. Brother Nine helped pack the luggage. It’s very complete.”

After saying that, she looked at Yin Jiujin and smiled faintly.

Yin Jiujin snorted coldly and ignored her.

Yan Jinyu chuckled.

She was going out for half a month and he only agreed after she pleaded with him for a long time.

Of course, Yin Jiujin wasn’t limiting Yan Jinyu’s freedom and not letting her go anywhere. This was just a little fun between the two of them.

If she didn’t care, would Yin Jiujin be able to control where Yan Jinyu wanted to go?

If he didn’t care, with Yin Jiujin’s temper, would he throw a tantrum with Yan Jinyu for leaving for half a month?

Qin Jianjia saw that Yin Jiujin was obviously angry. She didn’t have to think hard to know the reason.

She was rather exasperated.

Why didn’t she realize that Jin’er was so clingy in the past?

The two of them had been together every day for so long, but they were still not tired of each other.

It was fine if they didn’t get tired of each other, but he was even in a bad mood with her for leaving for half a month.

“Alright, then be careful when you go out. Have fun,” Qin Jianjia said with a smile.

“Mm-hm.” Yan Jinyu nodded. She walked over and squatted down in front of the pram. She gently poked the baby’s face. The baby was sleeping soundly, so he didn’t give her any response.

Yan Jinyu poked him twice more and chuckled.

Yin Jiujin saw this scene and his eyes flickered.

“The flight is at eleven. It’s almost nine thirty now. If we don’t leave now, we won’t make it in time.”

Yin Jiujin only looked angry. Although Qin Xuan had booked Yan Jinyu’s plane ticket together with theirs, Yin Jiujin knew exactly what time it was. He had also helped Yan Jinyu pack her luggage. He was also the one who reminded her that she probably wouldn’t make it in time for the plane.

“I’m leaving now.”

“Then, Sister-in-law, I’m leaving. Take care of my little nephew. I’ll come back and bring you some local specialties.”

This year, anyone could sense the change in Yan Jinyu.

It was not that she had become more lively, but she was more lively and real.

“Yes, be careful on the road,” Qin Jianjia said to Yin Jiujin.

Yin Jiujin answered as he put the luggage away. He opened the door of the front passenger seat and got Yan Jinyu into the car before he got in.

Just as she got into the car and was about to set off, she met Yin Xiaoxiao and Feng Li, who had just returned.

“Are you guys going out?” Yin Xiaoxiao saw Yin Jiujin place the luggage in the car.

The car window rolled down and Yan Jinyu said, “It’s not us. I’m going alone. I’m going to my classmate’s hometown to pick some herbs.”

“Your classmate’s hometown? Is it far?”

“It’s not far. It’s an hour’s flight. We’ll reach there by bus.” She didn’t say that the bus ride would take more than four hours.

“That’s indeed not far. How long do you plan to go?” Yin Xiaoxiao wasn’t surprised that Yan Jinyu wanted to go to her classmate’s hometown to pick herbs. After all, Yan Jinyu’s major was Chinese medicine. The most important thing in learning Chinese medicine was to recognize herbs.

In a modern city like the capital, although there were also places in the suburbs where they could pick herbs, they were still far inferior to the remote mountains.

“About half a month.”

“Half a month? Then bring your cousin along. Jin’er has work to do and can’t leave. Your cousin is free. He stays at home all day. He doesn’t have the vitality of a young man at all. Just bring him out for a walk. He can still protect you.”

Yin Jiujin didn’t like what Yin Xiaoxiao said. He was busy with work, but he could still spare half a month. He didn’t follow her because he knew that Yan Jinyu was going to her classmate’s house to play. The people who accompanied her were all girls her age.

If he was around, not to mention that her female classmates would be reserved, most of her attention would probably be on him too. She couldn’t have a good time with her classmates like that.

That was why he didn’t intend to follow her.

When Yan Jinyu heard that, her lips twitched. Yin Xiaoxiao was really worried about Feng Yun.

She was afraid that Feng Yun would really die alone.

“Aunt, we’re all girls. It might not be appropriate…”

“Are they all girls?”

Yin Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, “It’s good that they’re all girls. Since they’re your classmates, they should be students from the Imperial Capital University. How many girls who can get into the Imperial Capital University are bad? You can introduce some single girls to your cousin.”

“…” Yan Jinyu.

“Aunt, Feng Yun runs a teahouse. He has been leaving early and returning late recently. He’s no longer at home all the time,” Yin Jiujin replied.

It was not a lie.

Feng Yun had indeed opened a teahouse for two months.

Of course, Yin Xiaoxiao knew about this. “Isn’t it because I urged him too much and told him not to stay at home all the time that he came with this to deal with me? His teahouse has been open for two months, and the number of times he has been there can be counted on one hand. He’s completely a hands-off business owner.”

“That was before. These few days, Yun’er has indeed been leaving early and returning late. When I asked him, he said that he was going to the teahouse,” Qin Jianjia said. Her credibility was higher.

“Really?”

“Yes, really. Auntie, don’t make things difficult for Yu’er. It’s not convenient for the girls to bring Yun’er along when they go out to play together.”

“Sigh, I also know that it’s not convenient for Yun’er to follow a group of girls. It’s just that Yun’er… Forget it, it’s good that he’s going out.” He waved at Yan Jinyu. “Go ahead. Be careful on the road and come back early.”

The car drove out of the Yin Family’s mansion.

“Do you really have to go for half a month? Can’t you just stay for 10 days and then come back?” Yin Jiujin said resentfully as he drove.

“We agreed on half a month.”

She tilted her head and looked at him. “Brother Nine, it’s only half a month. It’ll be over soon. The summer vacation is more than two months. I can’t stay at home and not go out, right? You’ll criticize me again then.”

Yan Jinyu had been lying at home all day. Yin Jiujin had indeed told her that girls her age should go out to gather with her friends more often.

Hence, Yin Jiujin couldn’t refute Yan Jinyu’s words.

“You can go to work with me.”

“Don’t I have more than two months of holidays? Other than these 15 days, I’ll accompany you for the rest of the time.”

“Also, my birthday will be in a few months. Didn’t we agree that we won’t have a big birthday party and the two of us will celebrate alone? We’ll go on a trip together then.”

“…” Yin Jiujin. Alright, he had been comforted successfully.

“Who else is going on this trip?”

“Other than Zhao Linlin, there are my other two roommates, Qin Xuan and Chu Xiaohuan. You’ve seen them before.”

Upon hearing that, Yin Jiujin frowned slightly. “Huo Siyu isn’t going?”

The three girls were all weak. If there was any danger, it would all depend on his girl alone. He thought Huo Siyu would join them.

“Little Rain went home yesterday.”

“Brother Nine, don’t worry. That place is simple. There won’t be any danger. Besides, even if there’s danger, I can handle it.”

Yan Jinyu wanted to say this when Yin Xiaoxiao said that she wanted Feng Yun to follow her and protect her.

Everyone clearly knew her ability, so why did they still look like they were worried about her?

Home?

Hearing her say this, Yin Jiujin didn’t mention Huo Siyu again, afraid that Yan Jinyu would be sad.

Other classmates would have a home to return to when they were on holiday, but she… Of course, she had a home too. His home was her home, but he was afraid that she would still have a desire deep in her heart…

He changed the topic. “Why didn’t you call Xi Fengling along?”

“Meimei is too ostentatious. She’s not suitable for that kind of simple place.” Of course, this was a joke.

In reality, Xi Fengling had returned to the Feng Family in Cloud City.

There seemed to be a small problem with the Feng Family’s business and she had to deal with it.

Yin Jiujin knew her very well. He could tell at a glance that she was joking.

He knew that since she didn’t want to bring anyone along, it was useless for him to say anything more. “Remember to call me every morning, afternoon, and evening to report your safety.”

“Alright, alright. I promise I’ll call you at least three times a day.”

Yan Jinyu supported her chin and looked at him with a smile. “Brother Nine.”

“Yes?”

“Actually, if I wasn’t going to my classmate’s house and if I wasn’t going with a few girls, I would have brought you along.”

He flicked her forehead with his free hand. “At least you have some conscience to think that way.”

Suddenly, Yin Jiujin asked, “Do you like children?”

“Huh?” She blinked at him. “Brother Nine, are you asking me that?”

“Is there anyone else here other than you and me?”

“Then why did you suddenly ask me such a question?”

Of course, it was because he saw that she always liked to tease their little nephew and felt that she liked children.

“Just asking casually.”

Yan Jinyu looked at his side profile and suddenly smiled slyly. “Then, if I say that I like him, will you have a child with me, Brother Nine? Needless to say, children are indeed quite cute. If we have our own child, I’ll definitely hug him every day. When he grows up, I’ll have to teach him all his skills personally…”

Yin Jiujin glared at her. “Have a child? Don’t even think about it!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young lady chuckled.

Yin Jiujin sighed helplessly. Why was he still fooled after being teased by the young lady so many times?

However, he was also happy to see the young lady so energetic.

He could not help but smile when he heard her laughter.

Since she liked children so much, it was fine to have a child that belonged to them.

However, she had to at least wait until she graduated from university.

This was his greatest concession.

***

Yin Jiujin sent Yan Jinyu to the airport. Qin Xuan, Chu Xiaohuan, and Zhao Linlin had just arrived.

The four of them gathered at the airport.

Then, the three of them saw Yin Jiujin hold Yan Jinyu’s face and kiss her before passing the luggage to her.

“Remember to call me when you come back early.”

Yan Jinyu gave him a hug in return.

After Yin Jiujin turned and left, Qin Xuan exclaimed, “Jinyu, every time I see you interact with Master Nine, I can’t help but lament. Your relationship is really good. I’m so envious.”

Chu Xiaohuan and Zhao Linlin nodded in agreement.

Yan Jinyu chuckled, “Let’s go.”
